You remind me of those Germans who supported the Nazis in WW2.

What do you think of what the US Empire and its allies (the world's minority) have done in the last 20 years? The US doesn't want a negotiated settlement it wants to continue this war to 'damage Russia'. It is not interested in Ukraine or the fate of the Ukrainian people.

Hey, Hey, USA! How Many Bombs Did You Drop Today?

The Pentagon has finally published its first Airpower Summary since President Biden took office nearly a year ago. These monthly reports have been published since 2007 to document the number of bombs and missiles dropped by U.S.-led air forces in Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria since 2004. But President Trump stopped publishing them after February 2020, shrouding continued U.S. bombing in secrecy.

Over the past 20 years, as documented in the table below, U.S. and allied air forces have dropped over 337,000 bombs and missiles on other countries. That is an average of 46 strikes per day for 20 years. This endless bombardment has not only been deadly and devastating for its victims but is broadly recognized as seriously undermining international peace and security and diminishing America’s standing in the world.

The U.S. government and political establishment have been remarkably successful at keeping the American public in the dark about the horrific consequences of these long-term campaigns of mass destruction, allowing them to maintain the illusion of U.S. militarism as a force for good in the world in their domestic political rhetoric.

Hi Wankbot.


Please post lots more of these articles.
I'm becoming more convinced every day by your insightful atricles on how evil everyone is, apart from Russia obvs.
 
Reminder to all that Current Affairs is not moderated. You're wasting everyone's time when you report posts and can become "high maintenance" yourself.

As per the boss's pinned post:

Our advice to make this forum work;
  • Don't be a tit.
If you are, your account will be denied access to this current affairs forum.

God speed.

[UPDATE - 2nd April 2019]

A couple of years on and the 'Current Affairs' forum has been a success. When we asked, 100% in a poll wanted it to stay.

Recently, we've had a couple of incidents were one or two have been a little overzealous or emotional - it's a real shame when some allow politics/current affairs to spoil their experience on GOT.

A reminder then that The Current Affairs forum is largely unmoderated. Our moderators take a step back from moderating. We won't/can't moderate this forum as we do the rest of the site, nor will we allow it to monopolise our time.

If we find anyone who finds this forum a bit too much, they become high maintenance and generally not suitable for this forum, we'll revoke their access to the current affairs forum.

A reminder that we also ask that issues within the Current Affairs forum, stay within Current Affairs forum. 'Leave it at the door'
